Considering mold might be part of what is stalling out your vitality?

What happens when your body stays stuck in survival mode.

Mold can affect your energy, sleep, stress response, and nervous system in ways that make it difficult for your body to ever fully settle. It can activate your mast cells and cause numerous issues including skin responses of hives, eczema, psoriasis and more.

You may feel exhausted but wired.

Tired all day but unable to sleep deeply.

Reactive to foods, supplements, light, noise, smells, or stress.

Here I go again with Nervous System Regulation and Brain Retraining. I have found out that I can rebound back to where I started if I don't keep up with some sort of a daily (and ideally - a structured) program.

So much to attend to and things can slip. As an example: time outside during forest fire smoke is not what it would look like without the smoke. I just got lazy and spent a great deal of time watching TV.......in bed!!!

To get energy, one must move.
I also find that watching a lot of TV as a default, dims the mind, diminishes joy and makes the body weak......so I think I better get out of this bed and do something!
Now!

Nearly every patient who arrives at my clinic, no matter their diagnosis, is battling the same hidden adversary. The labels they have been given by well-meaning practitioners may differ; mold illness (CIRS), mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), Lyme disease, long COVID, autoimmune disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, and the list goes on, but underneath all of them, at the cellular level, is a protective, defensive metabolic shutdown that has outlived the threat that set it off. Dr. B. Hoffman

The Cell Danger Response is not a diagnosis, but it is the fundamental cellular response underlying most chronic conditions, and understanding it is what makes healing them possible.

“All diseases have at their root origin a “stuck” cell danger response” – Robert Naviaux

I have been working on the research and implementation of this for about 4 years: having been diagnosed with most of the above in 2021.

Calming down the limbic system and autonomic nervous system is the background to healing.......and it takes time.....and it takes commitment. But it is the soundtrack to the whole movie of healing.

Here's something I love....not mine....it came from Nick Ortner.

Have you ever noticed Winnie the Pooh never spirals?

Something goes wrong. The honey's gone, it's raining again, Eeyore's lost his tail. And the worst he musters is a soft "oh, bother." Then he carries on. Present, unhurried, completely himself.

Most of us don't meet a bad moment like that. We meet it with a racing mind, a tight chest, and a running list of everything that could go wrong next.

Here's the thing I keep coming back to. That easy way Pooh moves through a hard day? That's a regulated nervous system. His alarm just isn't blaring over a rainy afternoon.

And calm like that isn't a personality you're either born with or not. It's something you build, a few minutes at a time.

Thanks Nick.

OK - friends - breathwork, tapping, yoga, pattern interupt, eye yoga, etc. It is all free!!

Up and Down.....Crash State and
Healing State.
If you drew 2 circles the size you imagine the Crash State and Healing State to be, it could give you some insighht.

Today, on my page, The Crash State Circle was huge and The Healing State Circle was tiny.

So much work. And it can happen quickly to make the shift or it can take so much time it is discouraging cause you are down and discouraged and life isn't that much fun!

The important message here I think is that the size of the circles CAN shift with the right tools. And the more you work with the tools, the faster the shift can happen.

Nervous System Regulation
Eye Exercises
Vagal Toning
Healthy lifestyle choices (And frankly, I didn't have the energy to make many of those!)

Riding this wave (known as the polyvagal wave) is not easy. It is not fair. It is not fun.

But - it is required to make progress.

Today I am thinking about how social media is robbing us of valuable time - yes - even this post you are currently reading (yes - I do see the irony).

So, if a post does not entertain you, educate you, make you laugh, give you information you are interested in or make you feel good about your life - just shut it down.

See ya'
Have a great long weekend.

Well - still gluten!! And Wheat!

Ha! I have to comment on my post below. No wonder we simply don't know which way to turn when it comes to food.

I was watching an episode in a summit yesterday.

Dr. William Davis (author of 2011 best seller Wheat Belly) claims that modern wheat (not all gluten just to be clear - but modern wheat) is "the world's most destructive dietary ingredient". He argues that cross breeding has created a grain that negatively affects blood cholesterol, blood sugar and overall weight".

Dr. David Perlmutter (neurologist and author of Grain Brain) heavily targets both wheat and all gluten as triggers for inflammation and neurological disorders and states that all people struggle to digest it. 100% of people.

They may not have GI symptoms but stuggles with wheat/gluten will show up in other areas such as joint pain, respiratory issues, autoimmune conditions.

John Duillard (Ayuervedic Doctor of note) claims that wheat is a great fall and winter food!

And it goes on .....so good luck with it all. Obviously they would all agree that should you decide to eat wheat - go organic OR at least glyphosate free. And then this falls into availability and budgetary issues for many people.

Wheat feeds billions of people. So does rice, soy and corn. These are all under fire as unhealthy foods. Many say that organic soy is a great food. Some countries have banned all soy products in baby formula.......One "expert" in the healthworld stated that white rice is better for you than brown rice stating that all brown rice is extremely hard on digestion for a number of reasons. It wasn't stated that white rice is nutritious - just easier to digest.

And corn! I guess none of us can digest it hence the transit time test of eating a cup of corn and then seeing when it shows up in the toilet undigested. Whatever that time frame is would be your transit time - the time it takes for food to get from tongue to tail. Some countries only feed corn to livestock.

Doctors and allergists are all over the map when it comes to food allergy and sensitivity testing - one Calgary allergist told me it was all a hoax. Some say blood testing is best - others say DNA testing is best and they all cost a lot of money or you may be covered but have to wait 18 months to see a specialist.

Who the hell knows!? And some people are simply struggling to get food. Period! And that is just tragic.

Do your best is all I've got in the end and eat what feels good in your body and brain. Pay attention. And that's not easy either.

Thinking about gluten....always! Good? Bad? For everyone? Here is what Sara Otto thinks about it.

A note on gluten: Unless you have celiac disease or a
diagnosed gluten sensitivity, gluten isn't necessarily the
enemy. Gluten-containing grains are a valuable source of fiber
for your microbiome, and studies consistently link wheat
consumption with better health outcomes and reduced chronic
disease risk.

However, people with celiac disease, non-celiac
gluten sensitivity, or Hashimoto's thyroiditis should avoid it,
and those with high inflammation or autoimmune conditions
may benefit from temporary elimination.

It's also worth
knowing that modern wheat has been significantly hybridised
and chemically treated — so if you do eat gluten, choosing
organic ancient grain varieties is a smart move.
.....and oats?
Oats are one of the simplest and most effective anti-inflammatory
foods you can eat and a pretty great source of protein!

Eating collagen supplements does NOT directly build skin collagen — your body needs plant-based building blocks to produce its own. Dr. Jessica Krant (Dermatologist)

I've been trying to follow this advice for over 10 years but then I get side-swiped by some sliick marketing campaign.

What about applying collagen products? Nope - not effective.

So - save your money.

What do you eat to get the body to build its own collagen?

Protein (plant or animal based - both work)
Sea Buckthorn oil
Kale
Spinach
White button mushrooms (cooked)
Spirulina
Acerola cherries (or good quality vitramin C from another source)
Mare's Tail - Horsetail - silica (tea is good - it grows wild EVERYWHERE as a w**d) Bamboo shoots are also high in silica.

OK - you don't need it all and not all at once. So pick what's easy for you.

I am back from a week of "brain retraining" in Calgary. It was a taxing week and there is lots of rehab ahead!! Took yesterday off cause my brain was rocked (walking around the house like a stoned Ninja) and then Paul and I went through my exercises this morning....3 times a day for eyes/brain. Once a day for physical/chiro therapy (some very unpleasant ones!) 2-3 wee walks. Resting. Resting. Resting. Red Light Therapy 2 times a day.
Revisit it all in a week to make sure I'm doing the exercises correctly and that they are making me better and not worse!
Ocular, vestibular and neuro therapy to get the nerves on the right side up and running again and signaling in harmony with the left side.
It was a fascinating week and the equipment and technology is kind of futuristic.
So....onward. Give it 6 months of consistent progress at a slow pace and increase the difficulty of the exercises as we go.
Such FUN!! It is challenging.
There was a woman who spent the week with me doing her second round. She was paralyzed from a bike accident from the waist down - left side......for 2 years. She did an intensive week in March and is walking and working and driving!! Amazing stuff.
